Rock fans will soon be presented with a chance to “perform” live with some of their heroes. Set to open next year is The Music Hall of Fame, a museum located in Camden, north London, that will feature interactive holograms of John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Freddie Mercury, Kurt Cobain and other music icons. Attendees will be able to interact with the holograms, with footage of their “meetings” available for purchase on DVD.
